Abstract

The proposed study will investigate the effect of active electron injection of from electrode surfaces To the best of our knowledge, no such a study has ever been attempted even though it could lead to the formation of whole new classes of plasma based devices and systems. We are motivated by recent articles and simple theory which gives strong reason to believe that embedded electronic devices can be used to exert control over the SEE coefficient of semiconductor surfaces (and maybe other surface types as well). Furthermore, the research will explore how such sub-surface electronic devices can best be used to exert control over an associated plasma.

Collaborative Research: Fundamental Studies of Plasma Control Using Surface Embedded Electronic Devices

Technical Report Overzet, Lawrence; Raja, L.

The research program was collaborative between the researchers at the University of Texas at Dallas and the University of Texas at Austin. The primary subject of this program was to investigate the possibility of active control of secondary electron emission (SEE) from surfaces in contact with plasmas and thereby actively control plasmas. Very few studies of ion-induced electron emission (IIEE) from semiconductors exist, and those that do exist primarily used high-energy ion beams in the experiments. Furthermore, those few studies took extreme measures to ensure that the measurements were performed on atomically clean surfaces because of the surface sensitivity ofmore »« less

U.S. and Russian Collaboration in the Area of Nuclear Forensics

Conference Kristo, M

Nuclear forensics has become increasingly important in the fight against illicit trafficking in nuclear and other radioactive materials. The illicit trafficking of nuclear materials is, of course, an international problem; nuclear materials may be mined and milled in one country, manufactured in a second country, diverted at a third location, and detected at a fourth. There have been a number of articles in public policy journals in the past year that call for greater interaction between the U. S. and the rest of the world on the topic of nuclear forensics. Some believe that such international cooperation would help providemore »« less

Collaborative Research: Advancing the Physics of Magnetized Dusty Plasmas (Final Scientific /Technical Report)

Technical Report Merlino, Robert

A plasma is a gas of charged particles – electrons and positive ions in roughly equal concentrations. Plasmas are formed by stripping electrons from neutral atoms and molecules. It is believed that the plasma state of matter comprises over 99% of the universe. Often the plasma coexists with small (1/1000 of a millimeter) dust particles. Some of the plasma particles collect on the dust grains which cause it to be electrically charged, and so become an integral part of the plasma, forming what is called a “dusty plasma”. The large objects in the universe (planets, asteroids, comets, stars) are formedmore »« less

Collaborative Research. Fundamental Science of Low Temperature Plasma-Biological Material Interactions

Technical Report Graves, David; Oehrlein, Gottlieb

Low temperature plasma (LTP) treatment of biological tissue is a promising path toward sterilization of bacteria due to its versatility and ability to operate under well-controlled and relatively mild conditions. The present collaborative research of an interdisciplinary team of investigators at University of Maryland, College Park (UMD), and University of California, Berkeley (UCB) focused on establishing our knowledge based with regard to low temperature plasma-induced chemical modifications in biomolecules that result in inactivation due to various plasma species, including ions, reactive radicals, and UV/VUV photons. The overall goals of the project were to identify and quantify the mechanisms by whichmore »« less
